On December 19, 2013, a federal judge certified an order for interlocutory review in a Paxil pregnancy lawsuit (case no. 2:2013cv03693, Pennsylvania Eastern District Court). Paxil, produced by GlaxoSmithKline and approved in 1992 by the FDA, is an antidepressant drug belonging to a group called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). In the lawsuit, the plaintiff claims that her daughter suffered birth defects because the mother took Paxil during the pregnancy.

On July 26, 2013, the Office of the Attorney General, State of Louisiana announced that GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) will pay $45 million to settle Louisiana lawsuits on Medicaid fraud and deceptive marketing allegations related to Paxil and other medications.
